Message-Id: <20210118195453.761623-1-sashal@kernel.org>

Subject: [PATCH v2] kbuild: give the SUBLEVEL more room in KERNEL_VERSION
SUBLEVEL only has 8 bits of space, which means that we'll overflow it
once it reaches 256.
Few of the stable branches will imminently overflow SUBLEVEL while
there's no risk of overflowing VERSION.
Thus, give SUBLEVEL 8 more bits which will be stolen from VERSION, this
should create a better balance between the different version numbers we
use.
The downside here is that Linus will have 8 bits less to play with, but
given our current release cadence (~10 weeks), the number of Linus's
fingers & toes (20), and the current VERSION (5) we can calculate that
VERSION will overflow in just over 1,000 years, so I'm kicking this can
down the road.

Changes in v2:
- Fix code that attempted to reverse LINUX_VERSION_CODE back into
individual version components.
